Boon Edam Inc., a global leader in security entrances and architectural revolving doors, announced that Mt.

Dor-Control Craftsmen, Ltd. installed the entrances and oversees on-going maintenance needs. Toronto is known for its cold and blustery winter months. Prior to February 2016, Mt.

Wind conditions could be so severe that employees using a smaller, employee-designated swinging entrance at times could not manually open that door.
